  4. The SC Simulation Game Procedure • The game is played with competing teams of 4–8 players • Each team has four roles: a Retailer, Wholesaler, Distributor, and Manufacturer • The game is played for up to 96 weeks (2 simulated years)

  5. Customers Wholesaler Manufacturer Distributor Retailer The flow of product and orders • Manufacturing and transport takes 1 or 2 weeks. • Orders are received immediately
